.EFECI FICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 305,517, datedSeptember 23, 1884.

Application filed December 27, 1883. (No model.)

1'0 aZZ whom it may concern.-

, Be it known that I, AMos HARTONG, a-citizen of the United States ofAmerica, residing at J oliet, in the county of WVill and State ofIllinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements'inLamp-Brackets for Sewing- Machines, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the ac- I from the eyes a acompanying drawings.

Figure l is a side elevation; Fig. 2, a side view of the adjustableclasp, and Fig. 3 an edge view of the lamp-shade.

This invention relates to certain improvements in lamp attachments forsewing-machines, and relates particularly to the means for supportingthe lamp adjustably above the table of the sewing-machine,so that thesewingwork may readily pass under it, and for adjusting or holding thelampin any position to cast the light on the sewing-Work. 1

Referring to the drawings, H represents the overhanging arm of asewing-machine, having an integral socket, S, on its side, for thereception of the shank v of the swinging arm a. The outer end of the arma is provided with a vertical post, I, which passes through the eyes a ain which it may rotate. A collar and set-screw, z, prevents the removalof post The lower end of post P is provided with the horizontal shelf T,upon which to setthe lamp L. The upper end of post P is provided withthe sleeve 0, having the set-screw c, to secure it to the post I, and ispierced with a socket for the reception of the stemt of the shade R. Aset-screw, d, secures post P in the eyes a ai and holds the lamp-shelf Tat any desired height from the machine-table. The lamp-shade R may beplaced on as shown in Fig. 1, or it may be attached to stand vertically,as shown by the dotted lines. The center portion, B, may be removed whenit is desired to attach the shade as shown in Fig. 1.

When it is desired to attach the arm ato an old machine not having theintegral socket S, the clasp shown in Fig. 2 may be used to attach tothe arm H. By the use of the lugs w x m and a slot in the part m of saidclasp its diameter may be regulated to lit the arm of any machine.

Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire tosecure by Letters Patent, is as follows, to wit:

The combination of the arm H, clasp c011- sisting of the curvedarms mand W and setscrew m, the arm m having the integral socket S, providedwith the lugs 00, and the arm m havin a slot for adjustment on saidlugs, bracket a, ,having the eyes a a and set-screw (1, vertical post P,having the lamp-shelf T, collar and set-screw a, sleeve 0, and setscrewc, all adapted to operate as and for the purpose set forth.
